Legend of Dragon Son-in-law

Chapter 2682: Chapter 2682: Waiting for the Hare by the Tree

"What’s happening!"

Seven Gem Slope couldn’t accept seeing her descendants treated like this.

She was about to step forward but was stopped by Julius Reed.

Jessica was incredibly assertive, almost perfectly inheriting Seven Gem Slope’s domineering personality.

And the Nine Provinces True Lord was overwhelmingly controlled by his wife; he couldn’t possibly treat Jessica like this.

Something must have gone wrong.

"He dares to hit my descendants!" Seven Gem Slope didn’t think too much; she just wanted to rush over and fiercely beat the Nine Provinces True Lord.

"Save... save her!"

The Nine Provinces True Lord spoke in agony, "My body has been possessed by the Blood Soul... Kill me! Save... save Jessica!"

"Haha! You pair of wretched lovers, I want you both dead! And you, meddling fool, stay away! Or I’ll kill you!"

The Nine Provinces True Lord suddenly changed his face and began speaking viciously.

The Nine Provinces True Lord possessed Judas’ body, which was extremely strong.

Now under the control of the Blood Soul Emperor, Jessica had no power to resist.

"What should we do!" Seven Gem Slope’s face turned grim, realizing the situation was dire, yet she was helpless.

The distance was a bit far.

Moreover, she couldn’t think of a way to save them both.

"Kill me!" the Nine Provinces True Lord shouted loudly, "Save Jessica!"

Seeing him treat Jessica this way, Seven Gem Slope couldn’t bear it: "Save them both."

"I know."

Julius Reed narrowed his eyes.

The Eye of God slowly opened.

Through the Eye of God, he could clearly see that the Blood Soul Emperor’s telekinesis was obviously gaining the upper hand!

And it was gradually devouring the Nine Provinces True Lord’s telekinesis.

Once this process was complete, the Nine Provinces True Lord would be completely killed.

And Jessica would not be able to survive.

The Nine Provinces True Lord was almost exhausting his telekinesis, trying to restrain the Blood Soul Emperor.

Swish!

In an instant, Julius Reed stepped forward!

"Die!" The Blood Soul Emperor suddenly turned, blocking Jessica in front of him!

But the scene he imagined, Julius Reed killing Jessica with a single stroke, did not happen.

On the contrary, Julius Reed did not appear at all.

"Where is he!"

The Blood Soul Emperor turned abruptly, but he was still not there.

Neither overhead!

Julius Reed seemed to have vanished.

"I’m here."

Suddenly, a voice whispered in the Blood Soul Emperor’s ear.

"Where!" The Blood Soul Emperor frantically looked around.

He was struck on the back!

Bang!

Immediately, Julius Reed pointed his finger at the back of the Nine Provinces True Lord’s head.

An extremely domineering force was directly injected!

Boom!

The Nine Provinces True Lord’s sea of consciousness exploded!

Because Julius Reed’s body was the remnant of Emperor Azure River.

And the Blood Soul Emperor and Emperor Azure River were inherently incompatible!

Their two forms of telekinesis could not possibly merge.

So, the Blood Soul Emperor’s telekinesis was directly expelled!

A blood mist appeared in the air.

The Blood Soul struggled to coalesce into a human shape.

At this moment, Jessica also fell down.

"Jessica, let me go once more!" The Blood Soul Emperor pleaded in terror.

He had just fought desperately, seizing the opportunity to invade the Nine Provinces True Lord’s body.

Relying on the advantage of telekinesis, he began controlling the Nine Provinces True Lord.

In the Blood Soul Emperor’s prediction, both Seven Gem Slope and Julius Reed would die at Ambrose Sterling’s hand.

But alas, Julius Reed wasn’t dead at all!

He returned!

This made the Blood Soul Emperor’s plan to kill the Nine Provinces True Lord and Jessica, and then escape himself, end in complete failure.

"I let you go?"

Jessica touched her neck, her eyes turning red.

"I only cheated on you, but you want to kill me?"

She brutally drew the Nine Provinces Sovereign Sword from Julius Reed’s waist!

Slashed forcefully forward!

Boom!

The Blood Soul Emperor directly exploded.

Disappeared completely.

No possibility of coming back to life ever again.

Swish.

Jessica skillfully returned the sword to its sheath.

Seeing this adept technique, Julius Reed couldn’t help but frown slightly but said nothing.

For a woman, even a woman of the Nine Provinces kingdom, using the Nine Provinces Sovereign Sword so skillfully wasn’t possible.

Unless...

Julius Reed pretended not to know anything, bent down to help up the Nine Provinces True Lord, and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"

"I’m fine, thank you." The Nine Provinces True Lord’s eyes were filled with gratitude.

He didn’t care about his own life or death.

But he had to protect Jessica.

No matter what, he couldn’t let his beloved woman get hurt.

"It’s good that you’re fine; you two rest with Seven Gem Slope, I’ll go check something out." Julius Reed said and turned towards a large hall.

"Let’s go with you, in case you encounter any danger..." Jessica hesitated.

"No need, it’s safe here." Julius Reed declined, "Besides, what I’m going to see, you can’t look at; consider it for your own safety."

With that, he strode away.

Jessica’s eyes showed a hint of disappointment.

...

This was an unremarkable room.

But the room’s access was extremely high.

Only successive rulers of the Nine Provinces could enter it.

Julius Reed placed a hand on the door lock and found it was open.

Maybe the Nine Provinces king hadn’t had time to secure it in the end.

He pushed open the door.

Inside, rows upon rows of jade stones were neatly arranged in sequence.

Julius Reed walked around inside a few times.

He discovered there were over ten thousand jade stones inside!

Each jade stone carried a record.

This was the unique recording method of the Nine Provinces kingdom.

They could perfectly restore the scene of that time through telekinetic waves.

Just like present-day movies.

Technology was progressing, but ultimately it couldn’t surpass the Heavenly Dao.

These jade stones were divided into two parts.

One part was covered in dust.

The other part showed signs of regular maintenance.

The dusty ones were those requiring a crown for viewing.

After Seven Gem Slope’s crown was lost.

Subsequent Nine Provinces kings couldn’t view prior happenings.

Only a small portion didn’t require the king’s crown to view.

The subsequent ones were recorded by kings lacking a crown using another method.

Julius Reed took out the dividing point jade stone and placed his hand on it!

A sequence of memories surged!

It was precisely when Seven Gem Slope was killed, a new king ascended but found no crown.

Finally, everyone decided to search for the crown first.

Temporarily using something else instead.

Julius Reed proceeded step by step in order.

He found many Nine Provinces kings had looked for this crown, but still had no results.

Someone suspected it might be related to Seven Gem Slope, but how Seven Gem Slope was already dead.

When he saw a memory.

Julius Reed suddenly felt a chill down his back!

This was a Nine Provinces king’s dying statement!

He predicted that the person who would eventually get the crown would surely come here to check these secrets.

Therefore, he buried himself in this room.

As soon as that person came, he would come back to life!

Julius Reed turned abruptly!

A hand reached out!

He dodged sideways and the hand shattered a cabinet as it struck it!

A man, pale and emaciated, was standing behind him at some unknown time.

"I... finally waited for this!"

The man grinned, smiling with joy.
